Customer Reviews

I can't believe the sound that comes out of an amp this small. I got tired of dragging my regular amp around the house to practice and decided to give this one a try. Let me tell you this isn't a toy. The sound is great, the volume is enough that my family complains when I'm in another room. There are also a few different sounds that you can get out of it also. Give a try, you won't regret the purchase.

Great practice amp

What is your opinion of this product?

I just got this Blackstar Fly amp today it's just what I needed in a personal practice amp without breaking the bank. I like the gain, delay, and Overdrive. Also being able to plug my phone in with jam tracks, and headset jack as well is very cool.

Best $60 you can spend

What is your opinion of this product?

I have herd nothing but good things about the Blackstar Fly 3 and have been on the lookout for one on the used market all the ones I saw were so close to the price of new that I went ahead a bought one new , ordered on Tuesday delivered on Thursday. This thing is amazing, you can get alot of different tones out of it and it is easy to dial in something that sound good. I can get frustrated with amps that I can't easily dial in good sound , this thing has just the right about of controls. I want to play guitar not constantly fiddle with my amp. It even comes with battery's! Best $60 I have spent on gear.........

Great little amp.

What is your opinion of this product?

A lot of tone packed into a small package. Very cool little battery powered amp you can take anywhere. Good clean channel that you can crunch up a little with the gain. The overdrive channel is good, not quite metal but good hard rock crunch. The delay is cool and is a good feature that can be used like reverb. This thing also takes pedals pretty well so you can ratchet up your sound with any kind of pedal. I use a distortion pedal on the clean channel for a good metal tone you can switch on and off. All in all this amp is worth every penny and probably the best bang for your buck for the mini amp category.

Tiny Beast

What is your opinion of this product?

I have purchased every battery powered amp on the planet. I've even tried making my own. Hands down, this tiny brute delivers the goods better than any other. I could nitpick about the delay, but Kudos, for putting it in there. It truly is a pack and fly item.

awesome little amp

What is your opinion of this product?

Bought this little amp to take offshore where I work.It really sounds great,very good cleans, awesome overdrive.The delay sounds good but the rate comes up a little short,but that's understandable for the price.The batteries last along time and I dropped this thing on the floor and it still works fine. Friends are so impressed with the sound that five will be placing their order for one.Now I'm thinking about buying one of the bigger amps.
